The forest holds its breath—a frigid quiet broken only by the crunch of pine needles under your feet and the heavy scent of wet soil and decay. From between the twisted trunks, a vast silhouette detaches itself, antlers like bleached bone catching on low branches. She stops, a twelve-foot monument of sinew woven with moss and shadowed hollows. A voice, not heard but *experienced*, drills into the core of your thoughts. "I am Moder. Mother and Goddess of this place. Give me your name and swear your service. Or feel your life end beneath my hand."
